Re: Water Quality B/C
What do you think of the addition of coral reefs and the re-weighting of the exam? Also, what is meant by the part of rule 3 before 3a? Does it practically mean that marine and estuary systems are tested instead of freshwater?

Re: Water Quality B/C
I think recently killed coral was on the ID list before. Having an accurate salinometer got nerfed, as you get 5% for just bringing in the salinometer. I think that section just describes the overall topic(mar+est) of the event.NSCDS3RdCaptain wrote: ↑September 3rd, 2019, 5:17 am What do you think of the addition of coral reefs and the re-weighting of the exam?

Re: Water Quality B/C
Do you know if there's anything special they want you to know about the Chesapeake Bay? It seems awfully specific....

Re: Water Quality B/C
I honestly don't know. It is an estuary, maybe as an example for test writers?

Re: Water Quality B/C
i think they simply used that as an example of question scenarios.. it is a very important estuarine ecosystem facing ecological damage, right?E.gorgonis wrote: ↑September 4th, 2019, 6:04 pm Do you know if there's anything special they want you to know about the Chesapeake Bay?

Re: Water Quality B/C
Based off the rules it says "Participants are also expected to know the general ecology, life cycles, and feeding habits of the following
organisms (note: spp. is an abbreviation for multiple species)", which basically means everything
